I was pregnant when applied for 190 visa, delayed MED until the baby was born, for the whole family and even asked our CO to allow us to upload new PCC so that we could have the later entry date, so we submitted PCC again, together with the Med. And the advantage was that, believe it or not we did not have to pay visa fee for the newborn

Hi First, I was called to do the Med, and I attached Change in circumstances form, where I informed my CO that I was pregnant and asked for the delay in Med. Co approved , and instructed me to notify him when the child is born, so that the Co can add him to the application and create his HAP Id for the Med. When our son was born, I made him a passport and BC, sent them to our CO, and he added him to the application, and gave him HAP ID. Then, we did our Med and received the grant.

I was pregnant on my 190 visa, and postponed Medicals , gave birth to my son and then put him as well in the application. I really think that the CO will not extend your entry date, but fingers crossed . You can always activate your visa now, and return to UK. Good luck.

Why don`t you apply To Vetassess and ask for a Points Test Advisory letter ? They assess uni degrees for migration, i claimed points and had the letter.

I was in the same boat, but I did not need all 8s. I paid for a re-mark, but they did not change the mark from 7.5 in writing. Good luck !

Call him. A lot of people, including me, who applied in January for a 190 visa, got their visas, after submitting all the documents and calling their CO team.

Hi, we are in the same boat. We are planning to activate our PR in WA,and then to move next year. I too must bring my mother to Perth, I was thinking about a tourist visa, she could stay up to 12 months.

Wait, did you do a skills assessment ? You have two options : 1. Your skills assessment body will do assessment of the qualifications as well 2. ( My case ) Apply for Vetassess Points Test Advice - I gained assessment through testing, therefore NAATI did not assess my qualifications, so I had to apply to Vetassess

I think you get the same points , 15 for Bachelor and MA, so it really does not matter.

I did, within 24 working hours, I got it. But sometimes it takes time, be patient .

Yes you can, with two different e-mails, I did it, so I know. When you put your identification document, put one for one EOI, like passport number, and another one for another EOI, like birth certificate number. BUT ! You do not need to do so, because VIC is the only state which does not request EOI for SS application and approval. I got VIC SS without EOI, and they responded within 24 hours. My advice is to make one EOI for the time being , and apply for SA, and to make a SS application to VIC without making EOI. Good luck .

@the boardmans E-mail them, and call if you have the number. Which team are you ? The CO asked for my file number, checked the data and approved. :cute:

Got the grant e-mail today :wink: I called first Brisbane team, spoke with some CO ( not ours ), he checked our data and told us that we would receive the e-mail within 5 minutes. Initially, our team was 34, but got the approval from CO Team 33. I would recommend everyone to call them, or to send them an e-mail, as that CO told us that it was good that we called, because they are stuffed with work, and unless people call them, they would have to wait for a visa grant.

I also thought they would give grants to all of us who are decision ready...I think that they will clear all cases from 2013/2014 first, and then give grants to those who apply 2014/2015.

Thanks Gidza, I have become obsessed with checking my e-mail :nah:
